Fate has brought us together
Chapter 28: A talk with a certain Star
__________________________________________________________________________
"It's been a long day, hasn't it, love?" Usagi's only answer was a yawn. She giggled silently and kissed him goodnight. Chibi Chibi was once again nestled between them in the bed, already asleep. Harry turned to her and watched her go asleep. His eyes glazed a little. 'I can only hope they won't get between us. That Seiya guy acts strangely with her.' With that final thought, sleep claimed him.
*~*~*
"Good morning Odango!" An overly cheerful Seiya almost skipped to the Gryffindor table and sat beside the bunny, oblivious to all the staring he caused, mainly by the girls. Usagi became a little uncomfortable but didn't say anything. The rest of the group joined them for breakfast.
"Jeez Seiya! You never wake up before at least 11! Are you sick or something?" Seiya made a face to Yaten. "Shut up! Odango's normally worse then me, aren't ya?" Usagi turned her gaze from him a little and said, silently; "Please don't call me that Seiya-chan. I'm not Usagi anymore."
Galaxia and the other senshi looked at each other, uncertain of what to say. "Of course you are! I mean, look at yourself! You're as beautiful as you were when we first met!" 'Don't push your luck, Seiya!' Taiki thought wincing. Kakyu seemed to read his thoughts and grimaced a little with him.
Harry glowered and Ron and Hermione fidgeted in their seats. Ron leaned over him and whispered hurriedly; "Calm yourself, mate! Or else you'll broadcast!" That seem to make him come back from his internal battle to whether or not strangle the black haired boy in front of him and he took a breath to calm himself.
Seamus breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Neville, whispering; "I betcha 2 galleons that Harry'll have his head by tomorrow." Neville only whimpered and buried his face in his breakfast. "Well then, let me know when it's over…"
Ron looked at the time. "Oh crud! It's time for classes! And we have double potions with the Slytherins, too. Ugh! Why us?" The students started to get up and Serenity gave an apologetic glance at Harry and mouthed 'I love you'. He smiled warmly and exited the dining hall with the others. Seiya didn't miss this either.
The rabbit turned to the alien group. "Sooo…What do you want to do today?" Galaxia spoke for them. "We wanted to check out this place, if you don't mind, that is. Since you probably have more things to do anyway, we can go alone, no problem." Seiya protested. "Go if you want! But I'm staying with Odango!"
Kakyu was about to put him to his place herself but shut her mouth at the look the moon princess gave her; 'I'll deal with Seiya, you have your fun.' Kakyu nodded lightly and the others went to explore. Seiya turned joyously to her. "It's just me and you, now! What are we going to do?" "Come. I'm going to show you the quidditch pitch." "What's quidditch?" Usagi sighted and started to explain the game on their way outside.
"Wow! It's so big!" "Follow me! You haven't seen it from the stands yet!" They got up the stairs and found themselves a place to sit on the benches. "You were right! This place is great!" A sigh escaped her lips and she turned to him seriously, but eyes full of sadness with the thought of what she was about to do.
"You do know why I let you come with me, don't you? Don't evade the question, Seiya. Don't make it harder than what it already is." She finished silently. The wind caressed her and her hair flew away from her. She closed her eyes peacefully. 'Uranus…' Seiya had abruptly stopped his ranting when she had started on the dreaded subject.
He gazed at her and stared at her peaceful form, eyes closed. He closed his eyes himself. 'Who am I kidding? I'll never be able to forget her…But why am I torturing myself when…' He took a shaky breath and reopened his eyes, only to stare right back at her dark blue orbs.
He sat down beside her, but directed his gaze towards the sky, and she, to the forest facing the end of the quidditch pitch. He finished his thought from early by voicing them. "But why am I torturing myself when…I already know the truth?" Her eyes got only slightly bigger but she didn't move more.
"I know I'm torturing myself, but only to think about us, I mean, what could have been between us, it's making me so happy inside. I'm delusional, aren't I?" She turned to look at him, tears in the eyes, but she didn't let them fall. She merely gave a small smile.
"No, you're not. You've always been there for me in the worst of times, backing me. And I must admit that there were a few times when I thought to myself that my heart swayed on your side. But in a way, I knew that destiny would hurt you if I were to fall in… could I say love? Hum…Anyway…"
Seiya only watched her, and then glanced at the forest himself. "But you know? I've always known you had a thing for me." "What? You knew? But!..." He sputtered, speechless. She giggled at his face and smiled slyly.
"When I play innocent, that doesn't mean that I don't know what people are thinking, you know! I just never wanted to make your departure harder, that's all. After all, what are friends for?" The black haired boy seemed to think for a moment and gave her a hug.
"You really did change. I never wanted to admit it to myself. What a thickhead I am!" "Juuust a little." "Hey! I resent that!" He chuckled and extended his hand. "Friends?" She shook back with a clinging of chains and gave a warm smile.
"For ever, you can bet on it!" "But I still get to call you Odango!!!" "SEIYA!" He ruffled her hair and started to run away, laughing at her, when a small voice stopped him. "Chibi?" The singer approached the child and bent to her level.
"Hey Chibi Chibi! What're you doing here? How did you get here anyway?" "Chibi?" The small red head (literally ^_^;) cocked her head on the side and then gave him a hug and a peck on the cheek, before running to Usagi and latching on her leg, eyes suddenly serious.
"Chibi." Seiya gave a questioning look at the rabbit. "What's with her?" Usagi smiled at him. "I guess she wanted us to fix up our friendship once and for all before disappearing. Do a good deed before going back. She'll miss you very much, you know, hence the peck on the cheek!" Seiya looked completely clueless.
"What are you talking about? Where is she going? Is there a new enemy?" "Evil will always be present, but no. Peace is here to last for at least a couple of years, with the exception of power hungry youmas. Don't worry yourself like this!" She advanced to him slowly, silently, until they were face to face. "Odango?" She brushed it off.
"And this, is from me." She approached her velvety lips to his cheek and laid a soft kiss upon it. He didn't know when he had even closed his eyes but he re-opened them and put a hand on his cheek, blushing a light pink color. She pulled back and felt a pull on her cloak.
She gazed down to the still serious child. "It's time." She bent down. "Time? Time to what?" But he backed away very fast. The little girl glowed of a strong reddish color, before transforming into a sphere of light. With force, it flew directly into her heart, throwing Seiya far behind in the stands with a cry.
The power he could feel! And it was trying to contain itself, he could tell. But also fighting to get out and expand! Such opposites! When he finally could open his eyes, he could only stare with awe. Bathed in a sea of warm silver light, she looked like an angel from the skies. Her wings fluttered with the wind but she didn't pay any mind.
With her first step towards him, the light surrounding her disappeared. "I am Cosmos." That simple phrase almost made him back away from her but he decided better. He bowed a little and smiled warmly, although a little shakily. He couldn't believe it! The ruler, here, in front of him! But, this was also the moon princess, right? There would always be a little of the bunny in her left.
"I'm glad to see you're not running away or stuttering, Seiya! After all, we ARE friends." A light made him look at her. She had de-transformed. "And I am glad to see there will always be a place for me in your heart." She smiled warmly at him.
Her smiles were different from Usagi's, eyes filled with silver specks, hair longer and glowing silver, heart shaped. But he thought with glee; 'I could easily get used to it!'
He offered his arm to her and she took it gracefully. He smirked up to her. "Now, how about introducing me to that handsome but very possessive boyfriend of yours?" She slapped him playfully. "Don't start!"

Ahhh…Another chapter finished. But it's not the end of the story yet. Maybe I'll finish it at chapter 30, to make it a big round number. I don't know. We'll see how it goes.
This chappie was more of the relationship between Seiya-chan and Usa. I know some people wanted a chapter just for the both of them so this is for you!
Yay! Cosmos is back! He!He! *author grins*
Tell me what you think!
